Returning From The Magic World



"Hehehehe!" Surprisingly, Lin laughed after Arthur asked while she gave Arthur a mysterious look.

"Guess what, I'm sure this is something that will bother your heart," she said.

"Nothing can bother my heart here," Arthur replied.

"Are you sure?" asked Lin, showing a playful expression.

In Arthur's eyes, she was just using the opportunity to pressure him because she had always been insignificant in front of him. He shook his head and continued on his way, not responding again.

"Huh!" Lin finally snorted at being ignored.

After that, she suddenly said it. "The boss's college friend came to visit her, a man who is the son of one of the richest men in South America."

She smiled after saying that and scanned Arthur's face to wait for his reaction.

Unfortunately, Arthur still did not react.

Lin rolled her eyes as she followed him and asked, "aren't you worried that the boss will break up with you and start a relationship with that guy? Actually, that guy is also very handsome. Plus, he's the same age as the boss, so the boss is compatible with him."

"Why would I worry?" Arthur replied. "If he's Amanda's college friend, that means he's seen her a lot, but look, there's no relationship built up. And that was in the past when Amanda didn't have a boyfriend yet. Then do you think that guy can even compare to me?"

Arthur spoke in a serious tone, and when he finished, he looked at Lin with a sharp gaze.

The woman instantly took a step back and was shocked because when she saw Arthur again, it was as if she saw a man from another world, making her heart beat hard while her cheeks flushed.

So far, due to several points of view, she had no particular attraction to Arthur although she admitted that he was very striking. Plus, Arthur never showed her his alluring moves either.

It was just that, because of her words, Arthur ended up responding in his own way.

If even other women like Amanda who was very high class could be captivated, not to mention just a Lin.

Unfortunately Arthur only looked at her for a short while before stepping faster so that Lin who stopped stepping was left behind.

She pressed her lips together and fell silent.

"You shouldn't have bothered him," Kaiya said as she put her hand on her shoulder. "Don't forget that the boss is fanatical about him. Let's follow him!"

Lin rolled her eyes in response, thinking that Kaiya didn't understand what was bothering her.

Meanwhile, upon entering the hotel, Arthur immediately spotted Amanda, sitting at the hotel's café with her head resting on her hands, looking lazy.

She wasn't alone, of course.

A man around her age was sitting across from her.

The man had tied-back brown hair, wearing a suit-lined shirt.

It must be admitted that he was very attractive at first glance so many women had their eyes on him.

Although Amanda looked lazy, the man remained calm when talking to her.

He seemed to enjoy talking to her even if his words fell on deaf ears.

As he continued to talk, Amanda who looked lazy suddenly looked excited so he thought she was getting excited because his words were becoming interesting.

However, he was quickly disappointed as Amanda stared at the young man who approached their table.

"Dear, you finally came," she said with a faint smile, making the man's head shake.

Actually, Amanda was annoyed with Arthur for leaving for so long.

However, there was no way she could show her annoyance now. She had to be romantic or he would think their relationship was bad.

After speaking, Amanda grabbed Arthur's hand, pulling him to sit down.

"Meet, my boyfriend, Arthur Wilson," she said, immediately introducing Arthur to the man.

Unfortunately, Amanda's actions only left the man speechless.

Arthur looked at him calmly, but since he was silent, he was silent too.

"By the way, are we going to that auction tonight?" Arthur asked Amanda, choosing to talk to her.

"Sure!" Amanda nodded enthusiastically.

"However, let's have dinner first, I've ordered dinner, it's ready in the room."

"Okay!" Arthur also nodded but was not sure when they would go to the room.

Seeing Arthur's expression, Amanda added, "if you're already hungry, let's go to the room now."

"What about him?" asked Arthur as he glanced at the man across from them.

Asked about it, Amanda finally noticed him again.

She said, "Gabriel, we will leave now, if you want to talk about cooperation, my assistant will accompany you."

Amanda didn't wait for the man's response either, she immediately invited Arthur to leave.

With that, they left, leaving Gabriel alone with an awkward expression.

They entered the elevator and when the elevator moved up, Amanda immediately looked at Arthur sharply.

"What took you so long? What are you doing with that little girl? And your hair, why is it wet?" she asked.

She seemed to have instantly forgotten about Gabriel because she should have explained about him first to Arthur.

Unfortunately, she was in a bad mood because she felt that her man was taken by another woman.

Any other man would have a hard time in this kind of situation, but Arthur calmly hugged Amanda's waist and then kissed her charming lips, giving her such a deep kiss that her cheeks turned red.

When Arthur broke the kiss, she looked upset.

"Don't dodge this way," she said in an angry tone.

"There's not much to talk about, discussing it will probably only make you angrier, it's better to forget about it, and continue as usual," Arthur replied calmly.

His calmness was something that tamed Amanda, but she couldn't help but be annoyed now that Arthur seemed to rely on his tricks to calm her down.

Unfortunately it indeed made her even calmer so she wasn't sure what words she would say next.

"Huh, you should stop using skills like that." In the end, she could only snort.

When the elevator doors opened, she immediately pulled out his hand.

They headed to a room that was of course on another level from the one Isla had rented.

On the dining table, there were already several plastic bags that appeared to contain grilled meat.

Amanda walked over to the table to prepare dinner.

She did it quickly enough that Arthur didn't have to be patient.

After that, he and Amanda sat next to each other, eating right away.

"By the way, aren't you curious about that guy?" Amanda asked.

"Why do I need to curious?" Arthur replied with a strange expression.

"He's obsessed with me, I'm sure of it, so he'll definitely be your enemy. Well, competing with the son of a super-rich person is always troublesome. Since I'm his college friend, so I know quite well that he's the aggressive type behind the scenes, only calm on the surface." Amanda explained.

Seeing that Arthur didn't react, she continued irritably, "You really don't know how to accompany a woman to talk. Yes, he's just an ordinary human that we can easily get rid of, but at least talk about the scheme with me."

"Do you want to get rid of him?" Arthur couldn't help but ask because he was surprised by what Amanda said.

The man hadn't even bothered them yet, but Amanda already wanted to talk about the scheme to get rid of him first.

Arthur likes it that way, but the problem here is Amanda's change.

She's not that aggressive with Arthur's other enemies, but she is aggressive to Gabriel who potentially sees himself as Arthur's rival for her heart.

In Arthur's eyes, this looks more like Amanda's fanaticism towards him. No, the word fanaticism doesn't fit. It is love.

"I don't want our relationship to be disrupted because of a third party who acts as if he is something important," Amanda replied.

"You know, when a man gets involved with another woman, the man's girlfriend can usually keep her cool, even if she gets angry, she's only angry for a short while. This is because women have stronger hearts. It's a different case with men. They tend to get hurt and have their pride stepped on when their girlfriend gets involved with another man, even if it's just a crush."

Her words only proved that she really just wanted to take care of Arthur's feelings.

At this point, it was impossible for Arthur not to smile.

"I see, so you don't want my mind to be disturbed?" he said while holding her hand.

"Right," Amanda replied. "I don't want my little man's mind to be disturbed!"

She pinched Arthur's cheek after she said that, in response to his gesture.

One thing that hasn't changed seems to be that Amanda still thinks of her like an older sister in their relationship.

After pinching him, she even tries to pull his head.

However, Arthur stops her as he still wants to eat.

"Alright," he said. "Let's do that later, but I'm still not sure what the point of getting rid of that guy is? Is it just to kick him or to send him to the afterlife?"

Although Arthur wasn't bothered, but if we're talking in case Arthur was bothered by the man's presence, this talk was enough to put him at ease. And surely his relationship with Amanda would be deeper if she teamed up with him to kick out his rival.

However, if it was sending the man to the afterlife, that was something that needed to be discussed again more seriously.
